Title A name given to the resource Nordic Documentation on the Liberation Struggle in Southern Africa (NAI) Description An account of the resource <blockquote> In 2003 the Nordic Africa Institute initiated a project to identify archives in the Nordic countries, that cover documentation on anti-apartheid resistance and the liberation struggle in Southern Africa, mainly South Africa and Namibia, during 1960-1990. (Other countries are covered, see the information box in the right hand column.) Around this time, a large number of organisations in the Nordic countries e.g. government bodies, youth and church organisations, political parties and solidarity groups participated in the struggle. As a result, vast bilateral cooperation emerged and many well documented conferences and meetings were held in the Nordic countries and in Africa. Several visits to refugee camps in Africa and encounters with different leaders were also documented on videos, tapes and in pictures. Another result was this website that works as an reference source. It was launched on 24 April 2007. (<a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/">More about the website.</a>) Organisations in <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/archives/denmark/">Denmark</a>, <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/archives/finland/">Finland</a>, <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/archives/iceland/">Iceland</a>, <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/archives/norway/">Norway </a>and <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/archives/sweden/">Sweden</a> have localized, catalogued and organized archives on the liberation struggle. The <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/archives/">archival lists</a> are available in a database, found on this website, that has been created to make the materials known and easily accessible for researchers, students and others who are interested in this part of the world history. The project was concluded in November 2009 with a <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/events/">workshop held in Pretoria, South Africa</a>. </blockquote> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Nordiska Afrikainstitutet, in partnership with: The Finnish Country Committee on Archives on Anti-Colonial Resistance and Liberation Struggle in Namibia SWAPO Party Archive & Research Centre The NGO Solidarity with Southern Africa (Sweden) Tchiweka (Angola) Aluka (South Africa & USA) Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived <a href="http://www.liberationafrica.se/">http://www.liberationafrica.se/</a> Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Nordic Africa Institute Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource © Nordiska Afrikainstitutet Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.

Title A name given to the resource Finland and national liberation in Southern Africa Description An account of the resource Finland's special characteristics as a Nordic, non-aligned welfare state gave it the resources and motivation to support liberation movements - in spite of restrictions arising from trade interests and a reluctance to jeopardise the country's neutral image. The study shows that, although it is not an easy task, in a democracy ordinary, dedicated people can, over time, influence political decision making at its most closed and guarded area, foreign politics.
